Hello,

My question is how to create content (html) without creating new subpages to the main page?

If i want to have 5 links inside main page and each link to have different content (html module). Is it possible to create 5 different html modules in 1 page and when clicking link1 to appear HtmlModule1, when clicking link2 to appear HtmlModule2, etc.?

(this is the longer explanation if the above is not understandable):

I know i can solve this by adding 5 different pages like:

I have the following case scenario, which is quite common around Webpages in internet, for example:

I have one main page (in the menu) called "Collections". When I click the "Collections" menu inside of it i can add 1 or more Html modules. I can also add 1 or more subpages on the Collections page. So, they can appear in the menu as sub-menu or they can be hidden (not seen as submenus). I writing this because i know these options well.

This is not good, because if i want to have 100 sub pages i should create 100 pages + 100 html modules. Instead, is it possible to create only 100 html modules and use it in 1 page with different links? The 100th Html Modules won't be on the page at the same time, of course. There'll be 100 links in the page and when you click certain link will appear the Html Module for that link.

Hi,

Check out digArticle.  You can make 100 articles.  Then using the Article Dashboard list all 100 articles. When they are clicked that article will appear.  All on 1 page.

Thanks

Mike

It depends, how you would like to implement navigation. If you just like to have a (paged) list of titles, you may even use free Form and List module (dnnfnl.codeplex.com) to create a list with links to default items.

Sebastian,

I can use "form and list" or just an html module to create the links, but the problem is the pages / html with the content.

With "form and list" only, how to complete my task having 100links on a page and when i click a link to have a rick html format (html module for example)?

You may be able to do that using jquery to show/hide the html modules assuming they all have a unique ID and you knew them in advance but that seems like an awful lot of work.

Another alternative could be to use the the built-in DNN panels. Here's a link to a DNN UI site:

This would allow you to avoid 100+ html modules with an easy expand/collapse system.
